<p>dude your in dont worry apply to Riverside in case something terrible happens but ur into at least one of the coices mentioned above, i would bet my life on it.</p>
<p>yeh but doesn't my EC suck?</p>
<p>you have a reasonable shot to get in to UCLA and UC B if you're a cali resident.. im 99% sure your in at Davis pending the 3rd SAT 2 you have to take</p>
<p>what would u guys call my definite safeties?</p>
<p>UC Riverside UC Irvine UC santa Cruz UC Merced are definite safeties</p>
<p>saddream87:</p>
<p>UCLA: Match
UCB: Match
UCSD: Safe Match
UCD: Safety
UCSB: Safety
UCI: Safety</p>
<p>do u guys know what the deal with ELC is? u aren't guaranteed admittance to at least one UC r u?...</p>
<p>Yes. With ELC you are guaranteed admittance to at least one UC, however not necessarily to a specific one. </p>
<p>Generally, I try to stay out of the "what are my chances" fray - with comprehensive review at the UCs, there have been surprises on acceptances, both positive and negative, because other criteria play a role.</p>
<p>If you are ELC, that will specifically increase your chances at UCD. Perhaps other factors may also give you a boost. As far as ECs, the number of ECs or types of ECs do not really factor into the comprehensive review plan at UCD - only by having Leadership in ECs does a student receive "extra points" at UCD. </p>
<p>For Fall 2004, here are the selection criteria for UCD (there are expected to be some changes for Fall 2005 - they are expected to be minor):</p>
<p>some campuses require letters of recommendation in support of your scholoarship? (which campuses?) i thought UCs didn't solicit any letters of recommendation...</p>
<p>what is the deal with transcripts? do u only send it to the UCs after you are admitted? <em>sooo0o confused</em></p>
<p>UCs do not request, nor look at, letters of recommendation in deciding who to accept, however, some UCs DO solicit letters of recommendation if a student is being considered for some scholarships.</p>
<p>Yes, transcripts are only sent to a UC after one is admitted, and after the HS year ends. UC campuses do check the self-reported record against the actual.</p>
<p>wow, isn't berkely harder than 1380 to get into? or is it because he's a CA resident?</p>
<p>and by any chance could anyone explain how to get one's UC GPA? sorry for the thread jack...</p>
<p>yeh, i'm a cali resident, but i don't think that has much to do with ur acceptance, tho. yup, yup, i kno berkely & LA are hard to get into w/ 1380...(neways thanks for replying, people)</p>
<p>Yeah, to get a UC GPA, u calculate the GPA for ONLY the College Prep classes (in my HS at the end of the class title there is a "P") for Sophomore and Junior Years.</p>
<p>u should be able to get into all the UC's except UCB and UCLA are stretches for you</p>
<p>hey, does anyone know the address for the UC SANDIEGO website for undergrauate admissions status check? I lost the letter from the UC...</p>
<p>UC Davis!! </p>

_______________________________________________________________________ eh, i found the website, i thought i'd ask what my chances are now with sort of like an update... </p>
<p>and should i bother to take AP tests my senior yr? (taking AP: Calc BC, Gov/econ, English, Stats) last year, only 5 people at my HS took AP stats test in May....which do you think i should actually take??</p>
<p>At our local HS AP tests are recommended for all that took the course - that shows credibility of the program when a large percentage take the test and score well. </p>
<p>As a parent, I thought it was worth the cost for my sons to take all the AP tests they could. One son took 8 tests - that was cheaper than the cost of even 1 course at a 4 year college. Scoring well, he will now not be required to retake certain courses in college that were not his favorites in HS....</p>
<p>I know students who studied AP prep booklets for courses they didn't even take, passed the exams and ended up with useful college credits. </p>
<p>Different universities, and even different majors within the universities, may or may not give credit for different scores on the various AP tests - sometimes students consider that fact - but, who knows, they may transfer to another program and the AP credit could then come in handy.</p>
<p>At UC Davis, good scores on the APs can be quite useful - see this web-site for details....</p>
